How lfcinc started their logo design journey

Summary

UPDATE!!! BASED ON SOME COMMENTS I HAVE REVISED THIS CONTEST...I am looking for fun logos for my company, "Jewish American Pets"-- one basic logo for the website and business materials and 2 variations upon it for other merchandise. One that says 'Proud to be a Jewish American Pet' and another that says 'My child is a Jewish American Pet'. I no longer want the initials J.A.P. on their own, instead please emphasize the letters J, A and P in the words "Jewish American Pets" and "Jewish American Pet".

Company name

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

I am looking for fun logos for my company, "Jewish American Pets"-- one basic logo for the website and business materials and 2 variations upon it for other merchandise.

I no longer want the initials J.A.P. on their own, instead please emphasize the letters J, A and P in the words "Jewish American Pets" and "Jewish American Pet". The logo will be used on our website and business materials. The website will be primarily focused on dogs and cats, but other pets will have areas as well. I would like the logo to be modern, playful and creative! As you can see, I like cartoons. They will be placed on t-shirts, mugs, bumper stickers, etc... and I would love to see the logos on t-shirts, etc....Definite possibility of more work for the winning designer!

Wants

- Color scheme- some things to consider are the colors of the American flag and the colors of the Israeli flag.
- Style-I am open to all types of logo's, please have fun with this! Also prefer Web 2.0.

Don't want

Please no clip art! Only original artwork that is fully transferable without royalty. Also, please do not use the actual
American or Israeli flag in your design.
